glnB | Nitrogen regulatory protein P-II 1; Indirectly regulates nitrogen metabolism; at high nitrogen levels P-II prevents the phosphorylation of NR-I, the transcriptional activator of the glutamine synthetase gene (glnA); at low nitrogen levels P-II is uridylylated to form PII-UMP and interacts with an adenylyltransferase (GlnE) that activates GlnA; Derived by automated computational analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.

glnD | protein-PII uridylyltransferase; Modifies, by uridylylation and deuridylylation, the PII regulatory proteins (GlnB and homologs), in response to the nitrogen status of the cell that GlnD senses through the glutamine level. Under low glutamine levels, catalyzes the conversion of the PII proteins and UTP to PII-UMP and PPi, while under higher glutamine levels, GlnD hydrolyzes PII-UMP to PII and UMP (deuridylylation). Thus, controls uridylylation state and activity of the PII proteins, and plays an important role in the regulation of nitrogen metabolism. (821 aa) |
